As much as I don’t like a lot of things done by America (or most countries for that matter), this is kind of cringe?
… Ah, ok. Then jobs must pay that and then some, right?
Right?

422·1 year agoReading your source, it sure sounds like genocide.
That said, it seems like a summary rather than a detailed report and I can’t find the source in the page.
The other people responding to you are saying “did you read the statement by the perpetrators of the genocide denying it?” Sounds like a rather silly statement.
Can’t really weigh in on this but on the face of it it does feel like tankie behaviour.
EDIT: I’ve now skimmed the UN Human Rights report and it’s definitely genocide. The only possible claim against this is that all of their information is false, which seems unlikely.
I’ll also add that the first response above linking to the UN source I’ve seen copy pasted elsewhere. That doesn’t necessarily mean much but, yeah.
I may not like many of what I know of China’s policies (genocide, suppression of free speech etc.), but this is one of the things they have done well.
I remember a story a while back about an energy company suing to get a church to take down their solar panels because they were selling their power cheap to residents.
Sadly energy company won.
Wow. I thought only the right had conspiracy theorists.
Context for people who don’t get the joke, the logo on the right is for Tailwind, a library that offers an alternative to using normal CSS for styling Web UIs and websites.
It provides you with microclasses that add flexbox, margins, shadows etc. and discourages you from using the “Cascading” part of CSS (which was likely a mistake imo)
Ultimately, it’s still CSS under the hood which is the joke.
I might be whooshing here but you could also be a liberal and take action?
Protests are happening everywhere. If you aren’t too ill to do so, show up.
Uhhhh republican?
Nope. I complain when it affects me and disadvantaged people. Regardless of the party in power.
Politicians are not your friends and should be held accountable.
The rich and privileged don’t need or deserve more stuff, so I don’t feel bad for them if they are negatively impacted (within reason)
Make America checks notes Poor Again!
The Nazis praised the US’s “scientific” approach to racism and eugenics.
Measuring people’s heads; IQ tests served in a person’s non-native language and relied on specific knowledge of American culture; Plain old racist rhetoric like calling people “dangerous”, “criminals” with no evidence. (Sound familiar?)
Anything to prove that black and foreign people were inferior and should be exploited, in a classic “we know the answer and we must cherry pick the data to reach that conclusion”.
A lot of these tools were taken up by the Nazis for their persecution of Jews, and now they’re coming right back around.
This is an educated meme.
Cool. Now let’s make immigrants legally people in the US.

That’s what makes America the most free country of all.


Just watched Grapes of Wrath and that’s basically the vibe of the movie.
